The Social Status Of European and Amer
icaR Womea, reviews in two articles the con-
diIion of women in France, Germany, Eng
land and America. The review of European
society is hg Kate BysmsMagtin, aud that q
America by Ellen M. Henrotin. In the brief
compass of fifty pages we need not expect
any very elaborate discussion of the position
of women; but there are many important
topics tonehed in these pages, and no doubt
after they are duly pondered the reader will
agree with the writer of the second article
that America is 'the promised land for wo-
men," even though here the environment"

should not make the mistake OF having
a child fall into the hands of inexperi.
enced teachers, for it is when the child
is young that impressions are made
which are lasting. 1t is important that
these first impressions should be right,
and there is necessity for trained teach
ers to do this work. To encourage the
little ones the parents should attend the
Sunday schools. The child looks up to
its parents aud says, "I want to do what
papa or mama does" And not only
should the elders attend on this account,
but on their own. There they can meet
and discuss the Bible, and take il up
as a study. The speakers all
urged the parents to take more interest
their children and not to stay away |
from any fancied reason. In the eve
ming the children again assembled in the
church and very pleasant service OF
song was furnished by their youthful
voice..

CHILpREN,s DAY CELEBRATION
Interesting Discourses at the Sew
eral Places of Worship
Yesterday.

Children's day was properly ana n''
tinplv celebrated in many OF the
churches Yesterday, and for that reason,
there were seen in the pews and seats
many young faces that do not ordinarily
appear at the regular services. The
setting aside of one day of the year Tor
the children, brings prominently before
the elders the fact that there are at
tached to the churches, Sunday schools
where the young folks are instructed
in the elements of religion. These ser
vices were made interesting to the young
folks who were made to feel their i'm
portance by taking prominent part
therein. Below will be found short
synopsis of the services together with
discourses elsewhere.

CHILDREN OF THE CHURCH.
The Address of Rev. Husktns at
81. Paul,s Church.

The Address of Rev. Husktns at
81. Paul,s Church.
The text was from st. Matthew, xxi,
Is, l6. "Out of the mouths of babes and
sucklings thou hast ordained strength. ="
The chidrens songs in the temple Of
Tended the Scribes and Pharasees. and
they complained to Jesus, but he
quoted the Psalmist David in Justifica-
tion of the children. The highest type
of innocence and purity is little babe.
The strongest bond OF affection in the
home is the infant. Parental love is
greater than the love of gain. The most
abandoned criminal, who has once had
sweet home to remember, thinks OF it
with regret, and would return to it if he
could.
The Savior made little child the
type and pattern of all who should enter
the kingdom of heaven, and uttered the
awful curse upon any who should cause
one of them to offend.
The parable Of, the rich man in Ha les
who vainly pleaded for himself and his
brei hren would never have been heard
of him if he had preserved the innocence
and integrity of his childhood.
The point of the sermon, which was
illustrated by incidents in real life, was
that the chief work of Christians was to
keep the children in the cbnrch, and
deprecated the idea thatthey were not
already holy and inheritors OF the king
dom. All Christians, as well as Jews,
who were faithful to the Scriptures.
Christ embraced all children, and as
none were in our prisons, so none were
in the place of torment which the Cos.
pei spoke of to-day; where
Dives plainly pleaded for himself
and brethren. Canon Kingsley said III
old times one went about preaching to
grown folks to become like little chill
dren in order to enter the kingdom of
heaven, but nowadays some went
about preaching to children to become
like grown folks in order to enter ther sin.
Our homes are bat type of Gods home.
to which all children belong. A father
would say let that man be accursed who
would plant suspicion in his child's
mind that he was not its father or his
wife its mother; and that was the spirit
OF the Saviour's curse upon any who
would lead child TO think that God
was not his father.
The chief work of Christian parents
in Los Angeles was to keep and guard
their own children in the church, and
to encourage quiet home life. We
need not institutions but homes where
Christ dwelt. The basis of all business
and trusts of every kind was personal
integrity which could only be found in
those who feared God and kept his com.
mandments. The story was related OF a
man who left large sum of money to
found institutions of learning, with the
provision that the money should first be
invested for fifty years. He loved
money more than men, and thought the
stability of society rested on bonds in =
stead of character. What is done for
society must be done at once, and begin

ward or pert in their conduct oi
conversation. The Jewish maid, when
she found that Naaman was afflicted
with leprosy, remembered that there was
a prophet in her country who had great
| power in such cases, and so told her mis-.
| tres $, who communicated what the child
had said to Naaman. 1t was thus that
the captain of the Syrian Hosts came
| to visit Jerusalem and was cured by
Elisha. The speech of the little girl
was timely, and produced good results
Some little children are apt to say what
they ought not to. He had had occa-
sion to call on parishoner q few days
ago and her little boy came into the
room add told him that mamma had
got a new hymn book. The grand.
mother. who was present, tried
to restrain the little fellows
forward speech, but he disregarded the
check, and continued to tell the minis.
ter that his mamma had got the new
hymn book at the Pavilion where the
ladies Appeared in short dresses, and the
men and women sang in costume.
"Now this little boy talked too much,
and was too forward, for he told the
things the mother did not want
him to know" Self.possession was
another fine trait in child. This fac
ulty ought to be encouraged and devel
oped. He knew of no better instance of
ready wit than that shown by the great
Daniel Webster when he was little
boy. For some offense the schoolmaster
called him up for punishment. Dan had
both hands in his pockets. He held one
hand ont to receive the uplifted ferule:
but the master paused, and looking at
the hand he said that it was very dirty
one. Talking very seriously to
the boy, be said it would
be impossible to find dirtier hand than
that. Daniel said he would find one,
aud the schoolmaster told him to do So
He thereupon pulled the other hand out
of his pocket, and proved his assertion.
The master was fairly outwitted, and
being an appreciative man, omitted the
punishment. The children and the con-
gregation were greatly interested in the
exercises and appreciated the happy
in which the reverend gentle
man conveyed his biblical lessons to the

Necessity OF encouraging the
sunday school.
The morning service at the First Bap-
tist Church was devoted to the discus-
sion of the Sabbath School. The day
was set apart as Children's day and in
honor of the occasion the church had
been very tastefully decorated. The
railing of the organ loft was fringed
with green foliage and above the bar.
tismal fount ivy and other vines were
trailed and interspersed with these were
bright hued flowers. Below on the pull
pit platform were several very hand
some floral pieces, among which were a
crescent and star and floral stand.
On the Grim son above the back of the
pulpit in white letters were the words
''Suffer little children to come unto
me" and "Children's Day." The chill
dren of the Sunday School were seated
at the front of the church and during
the rather long services behaved them
selves admirably. The services were
opened with Sunday School song by

THERE is a growing sentiment in all

THERE is growing sentiment in all
parts OF Southern California in favor
of harmony Of action in the develop
ment of the resources of this section
,sf the State, which is very gratifying.
The interests of this portion Of Cali
fornia are mutual and by concert of
action the prosperity of the people
can be vastly increased. Our products
are similar, our railway and transpor-
tation facilities are identical, our
markets are the same, our geographi-
cal positions and climate all tend to
unity the counties from and including
Fresno and San Luis Obispo on the
north to the Mexican line. Los
Angeles from its central posi-
ton, its ample banking capi-
tai, immense stocks of merchandise
and unrivalled railway facilities is the
natural center of business for the
sout hern half of the State. All the
transcontnental railways have their
offices here, and the coast and Sand
wich Island steamships, and Liver
pool lines of packets, have their
agents continually in this city. The
Los Angeles Board of Trade should
be the great commercial agency of
Southern California. The rooms OF
the Board should be the great COM
mercial headquarters of the business
men OF half the area OF the State. The
prices Of freight, domestic and foreign,
and the prices of grain should be
established in this city instead of San
Francisco. The railway facilities OF
Los Angeles are superior to San
Francisco, and the great grain grow
ers in Kern, Tulare and Fresno coun-
ties can sell their wheat here as well
as there. Los Angeles is every day
becoming more metropolitan and
should be the market city OF all the
country south OF Stockton. All the
business men OF this region should
act in harmony in all great CONNER
cial matters, in freights, purchases,
public improvements, and in estab-
fishing lines of railway. The time of
going to San Francisco for aid and
advice in business is passing away.

Prince Niethusaien,

Tonight witnesses the reappearance
OF the Pyke Opera Company before q
Los Angeles audience in Strauss attrac-
tive opera, entitled prince Methus-
lem." The company comes fresh from
most successful season in Sacramento,
where its different members became
great favori.es during their brief stay,
winning the most fattering enconiums
from the entire press of the city and
generous appreciation and patronage at
the hands of the public. The opening
opera "Prince Methusalem, according
to the Sacramento press, was an instant
and decided success, and the manner in
which it was presented, the artists en-
gagged, handsome costuming and general
excellence in staging, seems to have
made vivid and lasting impression upon
the Capitoliaps.
The cast of the opera fer this evening
will be:

SINCE the insane act of the San

ing quarantine on vessels from San
Pedro, where there is no contagious
disease, the people of Los Angeles
recon mend that all vessels from San
Francisco be quarantined at San
Pedro to keep oat the deadly and in
curable leprosy that always prevails
in the metropolis. The merchants OF
Los Angeles will not 60 to San bran
